IFMSA CZ

IFMSA Czech Republic is a non-governmental organization in
the Czech Republic and is a part of IFMSA. It is a student
association with 8 Local Committees in 4 Czech Universities. Almost
1000 members can participate in several committees – SCOPE, SCORE,
SCOPH, SCOME, SCORP

Student society IFSMA CZ has a local committee in each medical
faculty of the Czech Republic. Thanks to that, we have the chance to
improve study and work environment in the whole Czech medical
education. In each faculty, we have a great team of local
coordinators, who take care of multiple projects all year round.
Several projects are focused on the public as an external part of
our work and in the same time, we have plenty of projects for
personal development of medical students.

IFMSA CZ - NGA fall 2016

Our biggest public projects are big events during World Diabetes
Day, World Health days and World AIDS week. They are organized every
year and in every city, where we have a Local Committee. This part
of IFMSA CZ is the most social beneficial and we have a real impact
on Czech society. We believe this part of IFMSA deserves huge
attention, since we, as medical students, have the great opportunity
to make a real difference and help the Czech public.

A big issue for us is also the well-being of medical students in the
Czech Republic. As every education, even the Czech one experiences
some difficulties. It is more than clear, that some changes take
time and even different point of view. Members of IFMSA CZ know
really good, that students have to be part of these changes. More of
our projects offer students chances to develop themselves outside of
lectures and lessons. There are the favorite Surgical Workshops, for
freshmen there are some extra courses of Histology and Anatomy,
special lectures with inspirational speakers, Gynecology practical
seminars and so on. Everything is organized and led by students for
students.

All this effort is fueled by the idea, that students shouldn't be
just a passive part of the university, but also productive during
their studies. Mentioned above, we do our best to create better and
healthier environment for the public and for other medical students,
but that is not all. Through all projects, clerkships and events we
grow to be far more responsible, realiable and skillful doctors.
IFMSA is not just for others, it is also about us!
